    Ghislaine Maxwell is being moved from “cell to cell” in her Brooklyn lockup — over fears someone will try to kill the accused Jeffrey Epstein madam before she stands trial, according to a report. The Post already revealed how the 58-year-old British socialite was forced to wear paper clothes and sleep on a bare mattress so she couldn’t hang herself with clothes or bed sheets like Epstein. Now insiders have told the Mail on Sunday that prison officials are so “terrified someone will try to kill her” that they are constantly moving her around inside the Metropolitan Detention Center in...
  • There are Lies, Damn Lies, and then There is the Lincoln Project.

    The ‘Lincoln Project’ is a political action committee created last year, allegedly for the sole purpose of preventing the re-election of Donald Trump. Their inaugural op-ed in the New York Times last year proclaims, “We are Republicans and We Want Trump Defeated.” According to their mission statement, their goal is to elect Democrats with a “shared fidelity” to the Constitution despite their “many policy differences.” While they seem to have no problem finding Democrats who concur with their ads, any significant differences between these self-identifying “Republicans” and the Democrat party remains to be seen. Their most famous Facebook ad, “Mourning...
  • NeverTrumpers Out of the Closet as Liberal Democrats in Drag

    NeverTrumpers are like gnats in the summer, annoying but largely irrelevant as they don’t sting or bite. Their movement hatched when Donald Trump was running for president and they became “the resistance” against the unfit candidate who dared run for president without paying his dues as a senator or governor. Trump was an outsider, not part of the cool kid clique within the Beltway, much like Rodney Dangerfield’s character in Caddyshack, a clown at the country club cocktail party. NeverTrumpers are well-known former conservatives, at least before coming out as liberals. This is not unheard of. Bill Clinton was once...
  • Don Lemon Is Right and Very, Very Wrong

    Last week, CNN’s Don Lemon spoke with actor Terry Crews about the Black Lives Matter movement. In recent weeks, Crews has been outspoken on the subject by stating that he wishes to “unite people,” that he does not want to see Black Lives Matter morph into “Black Lives Better,” and warning against threats of violence from the increasingly belligerent BLM movement. Never one to fail to protect “the narrative,” Lemon practically scolded Crews by rejecting the need to even discuss wider issues affecting “black lives” - such as black-on-black violence - arguing that “the Black Lives Matter movement was started...

    My optimism for the future of America has been rocked by my growing concern for what the left has become, the lack of a balanced media, and my fear of what a Biden victory in November would mean. The left is engaged in an all out war to take down President Trump in any way possible. So many of us are furious and saddened by what we see on the streets of America. We see hoodlums and thugs trashing businesses, harassing citizens, murdering even children, intimidating weak politicians, and getting their way on the streets of many Democrat-controlled American cities....

    “I’ve been in the habit for many election cycles of telling people when they asked me how important the election was, I would always say it’s the most important election since the last one and will be the most important one until the next one. I think this may be a little different here … this election is different. This is big, no doubt.” - Brit Hume If you’re a Trump supporter, this election cycle so far has been sort of like sitting down to watch your favorite college football team play a much-anticipated game against a hated rival. You’ve...

    When there is something that I really want to be true and things are leading me to believe that it is true, the lawyer and soldier in me both compel me to look for why I might be wrong. After all, confirmation bias exists – you want to believe that what you want is what actually is. Just look at Twitter. It’s a veritable orgy of liberal confirmation bias, though a gross, icky orgy like you might have seen at an after-party on a Bulwark cruise. I really want President Donald Trump to be reelected. There are a lot of...

    Philippe Monguillot, who was 59 and a father-of-three, was attacked on Sunday July 5 while working on a Tram’bus in the Balichon area of the Basque Country city, according to the Agence France-Presse (AFP). The incident happened after Mr Monguillot tried to stop a group from coming on board, as they did not have tickets, were trying to bring a non-muzzled dog on board, and were not wearing face masks - which are now mandatory for public transport users in France.

    They complained when he didn’t wear a mask, and they are still complaining when he actually wore one. Oscar-winning actress Cher has made the bizarre accusation that President Donald Trump is killing Americans after the commander in chief wore a mask for the first time in public when he toured Walter Reed hospital in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. The Moonstruck star tweeted her hysterical allegation while also claiming that the president “kills” for the adulation of his fans at his rallies. “trump Cares Nothing About Our Vets,Our Country,Ppl Who Are Dying of Covid,Ppl From Black Lives Matter,Kids He Keeps [locked]...

    To many people history is a pain they’ll never soothe. Since knowledge of events from long ago might contradict their feelings and passions, it is best left alone, shunned, and ignored. Besides, we’re the ones we’ve been waiting for, right? Why bother with the dead hand of the past? History can hurt us emotionally, so set it aside like handsome shoes that pinch, shoes that are too good and fashionable to throw away, but end up collecting dust on the closet floor. The Thing about history is that it subtly questions what we do today. It educates Socratically; it doesn’t...
  • You could end up in jail, US warns its citizens in China

    The US has warned its citizens in China to “exercise increased caution” because of a heightened risk of arbitrary detention and exit bans that prevent foreign citizens leaving the country. Citizens could face prolonged spells in jail, without US consular support, or access to details of any alleged crime, the state department said. The warning, sent in an email to US citizens in China, comes after Beijing passed a national security law for Hong Kong, with the legislation drafted to cover people “from outside [Hong Kong]”, including non-residents.
  • Poland election result: Narrow victory for conservative incumbent Andrzej Duda

    Incumbent Andrzej Duda has won the Polish presidential election by a wafer-thin margin, with 99.7% of ballots counted. He narrowly beat pro-European liberal Warsaw mayor Rafal Trzaskowski with 51.2% of the vote, the country's election commission said. Turnout for the second round of the election was reportedly 68.2%, the highest of any presidential poll since the start of free elections in post-communist Poland in 1989. Electoral commission chiefs said on Monday morning that they were unsure when complete results would be announced, with some polling stations yet to submit their counts, but with over 99% of the votes accounted for,...

    CNN ^ | Gerald B. Lefcourt and Robert C. Gottlieb
    To almost no one's surprise, days before Roger Stone's prison sentence was about to begin, President Donald Trump has spared his long-time political crony from the pen — late Friday, Mr. Trump commuted Stone's sentence. It is time for New York prosecutors to answer this latest assault by Trump on the rule of law: They should ready a state prosecution of Stone. Bringing a new case against Stone is possible thanks to Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York Legislature for Assembly Bill 6653. Signed into law last October, AB6653 enables New York district attorneys to prosecute what effectively amounts...
